Brandon Miller, a basketball and baseball standout at La Costa Canyon High, has been selected the 2013 CIF/Farmers Boys Scholar-Athlete of the Year.

Isabella Bosetti of Justin-Siena High in Napa was named the Girls Athlete of the Year.

Miller and Bosetti were selected from a pool of 590 candidates representing 1,500-plus California Interscholastic Federation member schools in the state.

The State Capital and Senate and Assembly will honor Miller and Bosetti on June 6 in Sacramento. Each will receive a $5,000 award.

Miller averaged 8.6 points and 7.6 rebounds on an LCC basketball team that finished 28-6. In addition, he had 45 assists. He’s hitting .265 for a Mavericks baseball team that is 19-9.

Miller posted his best numbers in the classroom. He has a 4.66 weighted GPA and had a perfect ACT score of 36.

Miller plans to attend UCLA where he’ll major in economics/business management.

“Sports have done so much for me, but being an instructor for the next generation has been the most meaningful part because it gives me a greater perspective on the purpose of sports,” Miller said. “My goal is to motivate as many kids as possible to stick with sports because I know from experience that it will lead them to good friends and busy schedules, which keeps them away from negative influences.”

Emily Oetting of Carlsbad High was named by the CIF as the San Diego Section’s Girls Scholar-Athlete winner while Thomas Edman of La Jolla Country Day was named the San Diego Section’s Boys Scholar-Athlete winner.

Sage Creek AD

Tommy Gamelin, a football and baseball star at Carlsbad in the early ’90s, has been named the first athletic director at Sage Creek High, the new school in Carlsbad.

The school will open next year with only a freshman class. Gamelin said the school will not compete as a varsity program for its first two seasons.

Gamelin, who went on to play at Gustavus Adolphus College, Palomar College and Idaho, is an assistant football and baseball coach at Carlsbad. He’s also the chairman of the school’s Career Technical Education Department.

Baseball notes

• First-year West Hills coach Cordell Hipolito has not been in the dugout for recent Wolf Pack games. The team is being coached by the assistants. “We still have a lot of facts to explore,” said West Hills Athletic Director Don Rutledge. “The only thing I can say right now is he won’t be coaching our team at the moment.”

• Mission Hills shortstop Jeff Nellis has committed to play next season at the University of Iowa. “There are a lot of San Diego County players in the Big Ten, and Iowa has joined the party,” said Mission Hills coach Ken Putnam.
